In some cases, the first foot is found as: \*Sarva-śasya-samṛddhām tu\* (ibid., pp. 11, 122, 127, 133) and the second foot as: \*yo hared=vasudhām=iha\* (\*Ep. Ind.\*, Vol. XXVIII, p. 114, text line 27). In the second half, sometimes we find \*sva-viṣṭhāyām\* (\*CII\*, Vol. III, pp. 119, 137) and \*sva-viṣṭhāyām\* (\*JASB\*, Vol. VI, 1910, p. 436) instead of \*sa viṣṭhāyām\*, and \*majjati\* or \*majjate\* (\*CII\*, Vol. III, pp. 108, 119, 137) instead of \*pacyate\*, and the last three words also as: \*pacyate pitṛbhiḥ saha\* (\*Ind. Ant.\*, Vol. XXXIX, 1910, p. 196). Sometimes the first half is given as: \*Para-dattām sva-dattām vā yo harati nar-ādhamah\* (\*Ep. Carn.\*, Vol. VII, Tm. No. 51) and the second half is modified as: \*ṣaṣṭi-varṣa-sahasrāṇi viṣṭhāyām kṛmiḥ\* (\*CII\*, Vol. III, p. 289) or as \*gavām śata-sahasrasya hantur=harati (or pibati) duṣkṛtam\* (ibid., pp. 238, 247; sometimes \*hantuḥ pibati kilbiṣam\* in the last quarter, —\*Ep. Ind.\*, Vol. XXXI, p. 80, text lines 43-3), or \*ṣaṣṭim varṣa-sahasrāṇi narake pacyate tu saḥ\* (ibid., Vol. XVI, p. 267; cf. \*bhṛśam for tu saḥ\* in \*Ind. Ant.\*, Vol. VI, p. 26, line 26), or \*ṣaṣṭi-varṣa-sahasrāṇi Kumbhīpāke sa pacyate\* (\*Ind. Ant.\*, Vol. VI, p. 25, text line 16; or \*niraye sa vipacyate\*—ibid., p. 30, line 16; or \*ghore tamasi vartate\*—\*Ep. Ind.\*, Vol. XIV, p. 335, verse 90), or \*tena jātā janayitā narake pātita dhruvam\* (\*Ep. Ind.\*, Vol. XII, p. 203), or \*śvāna-yoni-śatam gatvā Cāṇḍāleṣv=abhijāyate\* (ibid., Vol. XX, p. 128, text line 21), or \*narakān=na nivartante yāvac=candra-divākarau\* (\*Ep. Carn.\*, Vol. VIII, Sb.No.477) or \*sa rūpi kula-samyuktaḥ kalpāntam narakam vrajet\* (ibid., Vol. X, Malur No. 57), or \*na tasya narakād=ghorād=vidyate niṣkṛtiḥ kracit\* (\*Ep Ind.\*, Vol. XVII, p. 304, verse 10), or \*kaṭilā-śata-ghātinām: enasā pratipadyate\* (ibid., Vol. XXXIII, p. 213, v.5). For \*brahma-vṛttim haret=tu yaḥ (hareta yaḥ\*—\*Ind. Ant.\*, Vol. II, p. 159) in the second foot, see Chhabra, \*Antiquities of Chamba State\*, II, p. 178. We have also \*Aṅgam=ekam padam=ekam\* and \*divyam varṣa-sahasrāṇi jāyate Brahmarākṣasaḥ\* in the second half (\*Ep. Ind.\*, Vol. XXIII, p. 143, text lines 12-13). For \*divyam varṣa-sahasrāṇi\* in the third foot, see \*Ind. Ant.\*, Vol. XII, p. 121. The second half is sometimes given as: \*ākṣeptā c=ānumantā ca sarvathā narakam vrajet\* (\*Ep. Ind.\*, Vol. XVII, p. 337, text line 13). In the Tan Kran (Cambodia) inscription of about the 7th century A.D., we have the second half as: \*Avici-narake yāti pitṛbhiḥ saha bandhubhiḥ\* (R. C. Majumdar, \*Inscriptions of Kambuja\*, p. 50). The stanza occurs in the \*Padma Purāṇa\*, op. cit., verses 28-29 (with \*haret=tu\* and \*viṣṭhā-kṛmi\*⁰), \*Bhaviṣya Purāṇa\*, op. cit., verse 34 (with the second half as \*sa naro narake ghore kliṣyaty=ā pralay-āntikam\*), \*Brahma Purāṇa\*, 115, 67 (with \*ṣaṣṭi=varṣa\*⁰ and \*viṣṭhāyām jāyate kṛmiḥ\*); \*Bṛhaspatisaṃhitā\*, verse 28 (with \*harec=ca\* and \*sva-viṣṭhāyām\*).
